9News can reveal there are serious questions about the future of Opposition Leader David Speirs, with Labor's Cressida O'Hanlon set to win the seat.

"The only reason why we're in a position to defy 116 years of history isn't because of one individual effort - it's because of a genuine team effort," Malinauskas said.
